Cavalier love gone too far?

Autoblog reader Brad sent us a link to the J-Body forums where we found this extraordinarily unique form of self mutilation. Reading through this forum post's comments proves this is a real tat, forever scorched with vivid Technicolor into the arm of this young man, known as zsquee24, who loves his slightly modded J-Body Cavalier a bit too much. About the odd location, the owner says, "I wanted it on my forearm so if anyone pisses me off, I can hit them with my car and not get vehiclular assault." Classy, and smart, too.

Of course, the owner's friends in the J-body.com forums have been vigorously debating whether their friend is a total idiot or if everyone should just live and let live. Some of their comments, however, had us rolling on the floor laughing.

"I would have gotten it on a hoodie or something. Cheaper and not soo permanate."

actually Tom m., this section is for COMMENTS. And my comment on this story is this guy is a complete freaking toolbox. He's got a huge, gaudy tattoo of a shitty econocar on his forearm. How drunk was he? I'm sure it'll be fun explaining to his kids, some years down the road, how he ended up with the hairy, wrinkly tattoo of a car everyone's trying to forget on his arm.

I drive a '00 cavalier. As a joke, to make fun of people in my town, I had flames painted on the hood. Not gonna lie, they turned out kinda sweet, but it was still just a joke. It's not very fast, it's a little quick, but it's not exactly a supra. Gets me from A to B and has pretty good gas mileage. Certainly, not to me, a tattoo worthy car.

"My Bet, if it was a 350Z or a Skyline or whatever japanese plastic bomber, instead of a cavalier..."

Or whatever?

A Cavalier is a bit different from a 350Z or Skyline. Better to compare the Cav, in even "enthusiast" Z24 form, with a current Civic, Corolla, Elantra, et al. The only GM cars the 350Z and G35 Coupe can be compared with are the Sky Red Line/Solstice GXP, Corvette, GTO, Corvette, CTS-V, and arguably (thinly) the 9-3 Aero and Grand Prix GXP.

Keep in mind, this is coming from someone that's owned three (Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, Cadillac) GM cars.
